I did see your previous post, but I didn't had the time to answer yet. Very nice you solved this yourself.

I would love to see your code, but you should get some credit yourself. Make a new post, showing off your own project (try to include a youtube movie or some pictures), just make a quick reference to this post, explaining you started using this code and adapted it, for you own project.

I am able to post the code soon as it is due for submission by start november. also my twitter client stopped working due to the recent API updates. do you have any idea what changes i have to make to enable it to start working again?

And you didn't change a thing? That's strange indeed. I could test your code on my own Arduino and network if you'd like.

Just attach your code to a reply and I'll give it a try. If it works on my end, you might have network issues. OR you might have set the interval to low so your Arduino is asking for updates way to fast and your IP got banned.

Could you please help me to fix it? Do you have any idea of how I can solve it? Could your code help me to do it?You'd be very helpful, really

are you able to show those characters on the serial monitor, when put into a string? (not from twitter, but when you just do Serial.print("those special characters"); ?

You can replace those &#241 , &#191, &#161 with the actual character. I did that in another project of mine (www.jo3ri.be/arduino/projects/castduino). You can start looking for &# with Textfinder and when found replace those with along with the according number.

I have been playing with a similar idea for control purposes, but never actually built any of it.

A trick I find could help a lot to simplify the on-board Arduino logic would be to put a service in-between the Arduino and the Twitter API to act as a proxy and format translator.

The idea would be that you can use the right tool for the right job. Calling a REST webservice, parsing the results and doing something with the data is a piece of cake in most "internet languages", like Java, JavaScript, Ruby or PHP. With a such a proxy in place, you could re-format the response from Twitter into something very Arduino-friendly to save valuable CPU and RAM. It would also give you a separation of concerns and provide a place to add more advanced features like caching of results and adding in more sources without having to change the Arduino program.

Just testing it out and it only seems to return one tweet? I am pulling tweets from https://twitter.com/BBCBreaking to return latest news items but it only returns the latest, and after that it just keeps looking but not returning tweets?

Maybe I misunderstand something, but I have tried it with other usernames and it seems the same?

Is there also a way to display my twitter feed (to display tweets from those I'm following)?
